The First XV are playing Deal and Betteshanger Lions this coming Saturday and we have a deal and a half for supporters before the match. Warm up with pie and mash, plus a pint, for a tenner.

I need to know numbers by close of play Wednesday so let me know as soon as you can.

An hour before kick-off we’ll be offering a great pie and mash, with veg, followed by a cheeseboard, with a pint from the bar, for just £10. Those of you who enjoyed our fantastic beef stew and dumplings before the Thanet game will know what an excellent deal this is.

Why not bring your friends and family down the club for 1.15pm, get yourself your favourite drink from the bar and enjoy a hearty meal before the match?

The food will be served from 1.30pm. That will see you through the afternoon cheering on the lads to victory, whatever the November weather can throw at us.

Let me know if you are coming for lunch so so when they ask ‘who ate all the pies?’ it won’t just be me.
